I have found my Truth in creation, the creation of paintings and drawings. What I am incapable of communicating in words I am able to express through my work. A painting speaks with color, form, texture, line and shape. Imagery goes beyond words - an image can communicate something different to each viewer as they are allowed to feel and interpret the imagery through their own experiences and understanding. I create each piece by observing imagery in my own environment and with imagery that is derived from my own consciousness. Each piece is impressed with my experiences and understanding at that time in my life. As a whole, it is a dialogue and communication with myself, on who I am as a woman, and what my place is in this existence. My artwork is my autobiography, but I hope that when viewed by others it will communicate something to each person about themselves, and that they can find their own truth in my work.

~ Jennifer Diamanti


Jennifer embodies that rare mixture of innate talent, disciplined education, and unbridled passion from which greatness may ensue. Hers is the restless marriage of an instinctive ability to capture multi-dimensional images, honed and guided under determined and disciplined study, and fed by a well-spring of passion, imagination, emotion, and pain. A purist at heart, she refuses to confine a piece to the limits of her own rational thought, but displays the courage to let the opus take on its own form. Whether subconscious, or surreal, or existential, or cosmic – her work contains that “something” that differentiates the thin from the profound. Equal parts leading and following, she creates in a dance of fury and restraint, abstract and ordered. And in this way, her pieces are utterly approachable and identifiable to the viewer, though imbued with the wonder of something unknown yet familiar, something strange, and beautiful. Unlike most poor souls, Jennifer has the distinct fortune of knowing all this – knowing that she’s good at something, and even more so, knowing that it’s the one thing she most loves to do. And that she knows this, and has given herself over to it, heart and soul, makes it our good fortune.”
